I've definitely fallen off my blogging routine since the spring months commenced. Lots of factors, but it all comes down to effort. Other matters have demanded more time, more thought, more effort. I've waned of late with the thought thread that usually provides the root of the entry I end up posting. So today making …

America.
A troika of good came together last evening that I've just got to share. I was in between the end-of-workday and an evening meeting. I had enough time for a couple tacos, then a stop at a local watering hole; might call it a dive bar. there were about twenty people living life when I …
Serenity NOW
Known as the "Serenity Prayer", it's well known in many circles of folks that are people of faith. Most often you see the first stanza only...but the whole thing is quite good too. Written by American theologian Reinhold Niebuhr in the early part of the 20th century, these words have provided a foundation for many …
Hiatus
I've been off the blog grid mostly for the past few weeks. Not sure exactly why. Life's been pretty busy for a while and I've managed to get posts in regularly before. For some reason lately I've lost track of the snippets of time I'd previously done the writing. I'm sure the pendulum's string will …
#Caregiver

The thing is, when I say it to other people, I'm saying it to myself too. I really believe in this philosophy to my core. The idea is …
Whoops…That’s Life…Keep Going
Sometimes life gets away from you. Days and deadlines pass, the to-do list blows up, unforeseen issues come up that demand your attention. Those issues take hours -- ones you didn't plan on allocating -- to resolve issues. That's ok. That's just life. The key point here is how you respond to said situations. It …
Make the Time, Enjoy!
Life is full of challenges and choices. Countless things vie for our attention. One of the best things about being human is we get to choose what we will do. And there are so many things to choose from every day. There's the girlfriend or wife, the boyfriend or husband, maybe you have kids, or …
Problems? GOOD.
I've written a lot about attitude...err, trying to have and maintain a good one, that is. I think about it all the time, actually. But like everyone, I also struggle with the endeavor plenty of times. The basic concept that "life is difficult" is one I consider often as well. A variation on that idea …
